I would guess that in trading Framber the drop in cWPA on a year-to-year basis would be greater for '24 and '25 than would a potential...
If you trade Framber then the best remaining SP on the team might be Hunter Brown. JV took a step back last season and very well may take another...
Watch Framber win the Cy next season now that he has a receiver who’s not scared of catching his breaking pitches.
Signing someone who can provide as much value as Framber next season would cost a king’s ransom. More likely they would sign another discount bin...
Unless you’re getting a really good SP back in return, I don’t see the sense in trading Framber. Who else is going to pitch?
After last year, it’s a little weird how sensible this all sounds.
That’s literally his track record lol.
Was Charlie Morton the one guy they let get away who hurt the most? Dude has been consistently productive since leaving Houston.
This is the undeniable advantage that the Dodgers, Yankees, and Mets have. This kind of contract could potentially destroy most other franchises...
That deal is unbelievable. Especially considering his current ability to pitch. They’re gonna be spending $70M/yr on a DH if he can’t return as...
Yeah, it doesn't seem he played CF at all this past season and obviously his bat with its iffy power will not play nearly as well in the corner.
I'm surprised Barber made it through but perhaps he doesn't have the same kind of ceiling people saw in him in the past.
Surprisingly, no one likie Colin Barber.
So are the Astros now committed to entering the first tier of penalties for the LT or would it still be possible/practical for them to dump salary...
Don’t know if I’d like that as an Astros fan.
Going to optimistically predict that if Meyers gets 400+ PA as a CF that the Astros will have three 3+ WAR OFs next season.
I want to cash in on his career year while opening the door for Kessinger. I’m a Kessinger believer though so your mileage may vary.
Looks like the moves that were patently obvious to make last season - making Meyers and Diaz your primary CF and C - will finally come to pass...
I like it. Now we just need to get Dana on the trade Dubon train.
The White Sox would be the kind of org to appreciate someone like Maldy.
